Ingredients:
8 ounces dried mission figs |
1/2 cup red wine |
1/4 cup sugar |
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper |
2 sprigs fresh thyme |
cheese and sliced bread, for serving |
Directions:
1. Trim and halve the figs, place in a saucepan with the wine, sugar, salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the wine is reduced by half and slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the thyme sprigs. Serve on top of an assertive cheese, such as Manchego, blue, Taleggio, or a triple cream spread over bread slices.
